Novel mutation in coagulation factor VII (Carmel mutation): Identification and characterization.
Article in Research and practice in thrombosis and haemostasis, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundMeasurement of factor VII (FVII) activity does not enable prediction of bleeding tendency in individuals with inherited FVII deficiency.
objectiveTo characterize the molecular and functional features of FVII in a family with FVII deficiency and correlate them with the bleeding tendency. PATIENTS/
methodsWe studied 7 family members with very low FVII activity using prothrombin time (PT), activated factor VII (FVIIa), FVII activity level, and thrombin generation. The factor 7 gene was sequenced and the mutation was analyzed by prediction software.
resultsThe proband has very low FVII activity (0%-4%), with PT ranging between 5% to 18% depending on the tissue factor (TF) origin. Direct sequencing demonstrated a single homozygous nucleotide substitution G > A in exon 6, predicting a novel missense mutation Cys164Tyr. Three members of the family were found to be heterozygous carriers of this mutation. One of them was a compound heterozygote, carrying both the Cys164Tyr and Ala244Val mutation (linked to Arg353Gln polymorphism). Her FVII activity and antigen levels were 3%-7% and 8%, respectively. The other heterozygous carriers demonstrated FVII activity of 41%-54%, FVII antigen of 46%-66%, and FVIIa activity of 30%. FVIIa was undetectable in the homozygous and compound heterozygous subjects. Thrombin generation was normal in the presence of calcium, but no response to TF addition was observed in the homozygous proband, and a reduced response was observed in the compound heterozygous subject.
conclusionThe patient homozygous for the "Carmel" mutation has mild clinical manifestations despite very low FVII activity, which correlates with thrombin generation results.
